Mousavi, an architect and artist who was prime minister during the 1980s, is an uncharismatic figure. His wife, Zahra Rahnavard, is his secret weapon. Tiny and highly articulate, she was the first political wife to appear on the campaign trail with her husband, giving speeches and publicly holding hands.
“We were singing, dancing in the streets, boys and girls together. We had never done this before" Sara Siadat Nejad
the FIRST election in which women played a potent role, demanding an end to the inequalities they endured.
beatings by riot police, closure of universities and clampdown on foreign news websites yesterday, after Ahmadinejad claimed an overwhelming victory, were targeted at the Facebook generation
moral police have not only cracked down on any dress or behaviour they deemed unIslamic, but have also closed newspapers, blocked websites and arrested bloggers and human-rights activists.
get rid of Ahmadinejad. “Death to the dictator,” young men and women roared at Mousavi rallies. “Death to the government.” It was their generation’s twist on the Iranian revolution’s chant, “Death to America.”
p.s. to american's (i am one) please say "EE RON" not "EYE RAN" respect those as you would be respected..last i checked 2010 is around the corner why is this still apart of our present when we are NOW in the future we dreamed
